Current general condition: There are no symptoms, but the EEG shows abnormalities.
Doctor's answer:
Viral encephalitis is a highly seasonal illness. Generally, the cause of brain diseases is due to a cold history in the past few days. Part of the reason is due to mumps infection. Common symptoms include headache, vomiting, fever, mental decline, etc. The smaller the child, the more severe the condition. Auxiliary tests include abnormal activity on an electroencephalogram. Doctors generally recommend a lumbar puncture. But if you have a mild illness, you can do this. Treatment options: If the headache symptoms are significant, dehydration will be used to reduce intracranial pressure. Antiviral fluid therapy. Approximately 7-10 days. Re-examine the electroencephalogram. Discharge and go home.
